A culture of quality and continuous improvement was on display at the Modibbo Adama University Teaching Hospital (MAUTH), Yola, as the hospital released results of its June 2026 Monthly Ward Assessment, with the Female Surgical Ward emerging as the overall best-performing ward.
According to the assessment conducted by the hospital’s Monthly Ward Assessment Committee, the Female Surgical Ward secured 1st position with 99.66%. It was followed by the Urogynaecology Fistula Centre in 2nd place with 99.45%, and Male Surgical Ward II in 3rd with 99.41%.
Speaking after the presentation, the Chairman of the Monthly Ward Assessment Committee, Dr. Sajoh Njidda Jesse, commended all participating wards for sustaining quality standards despite operational challenges. He urged departments to address identified gaps and maintain the momentum.
According to him, the assessment is not designed to celebrate winners alone but to inspire every ward to embrace continuous quality improvement, teamwork, and professional excellence.
Representing the Chief Medical Director, Prof. Adamu Girei Bakari, the Chairman of the Medical Advisory Committee (CMAC), Dr. Dahiru Yusuf Ribadu, applauded the Committee for its diligence, fairness, and objectivity. He noted that the consistency in the assessment records reflects the Committee’s credibility and commitment to institutional development.
Dr. Ribadu challenged every ward to aspire for greater heights, stressing that remaining consistently at the lower end of the performance table should serve as a call for deliberate administrative attention and corrective action.
“Every ward possesses the potential to rise through commitment, innovation and teamwork,” he said.
Beyond cleanliness and orderliness, the assessment evaluates wards on prompt reporting of faulty facilities, effective utilisation of hospital resources, quality patient care, adherence to professional standards, responsiveness to operational challenges, and other graded performance indicators.
The monthly exercise continues to strengthen MAUTH’s quality assurance framework, reinforcing a culture where excellence is a habit and service is transformed into standard, performance into pride, and commitment into compassionate, patient-centred care.
